Details

Made from kiln-dried Oregon Cedar, this is a classic raised garden planter in which to grow your own vegetables, herbs or flowers. Besides being an attractive and functional planter for any gardener, this 'standing' planter is especially practical for seniors or anyone with limited mobility.

Each planter is coated with a safe, non-toxic sealant which extends the natural lifespan and improves the rot resistance, allowing us to offer a 15 year limited warranty.

2' x 6' Planter:

Optional Bottom Shelf:

Planters can be equipped with a bottom shelf to keep tools and amendments handy. The shelf option is only available for planters 34 inches tall and 11 inches deep.

Each planter comes with a heavy duty plastic liner to collect water draining out from the bottom of the planter and channel it to one side, keeping the area below and optional shelf dry.

Dimensions

Planters with 11 inches planting depth are popular and versatile enough to grow most vegetables, herbs and flowers. Planters 16.5 inches deep provide more soil for deep rooted plants.

All our cedar raised garden planters are 34 inches tall, allowing you to comfortably stand and garden at waist height. Wheelchair users can access the garden while positioned sideways to the planter.

Durable Cedar

These planter boxes are made from kiln-dried Oregon cedar—the strongest of all cedars. As strong as Douglas Fir and more rot-resistant than Redwood. It is a fragrant, light-colored wood with even texture and strong natural oils that help protect against moisture and microorganisms.

To enhance the cedar's natural rot resistance, the boards are treated with a non-toxic silica-based wood stabilizer which hardens the wood and further extends its lifespan.

The cedar's superior strength and durability means these planters last many times longer than most lumber found in stores. In normal conditions, we guarantee a lifespan of 15 years.

Set Up & Assembly

Natural Cedar Raised Garden Planters can be set up on any ground surface that is flat and level, such as a patio, deck, rooftop or driveway, as well as dirt and lawn.

Simply stack the boards, insert corner pins, and attach trim, legs and bottom using included screws. A power screwdriver is recommended.
Assembly instructions are included.

We recommend adding an inch of gravel to the bottom of the planter before filling with soil. This improves drainage and aeration for healthy soil.

Do you line the planter box with some sort of material so the soil doesn't seep out?

The Natural Cedar Raised Garden Planters have snugly slatted bottoms. Soil will not seep out. Each planter comes with a heavy duty plastic liner to collect water draining out from the bottom of the planter and channel it to one side, keeping the area below and optional shelf dry.

Does the exterior need to be treated in some way to maintain its original color?

Cedar naturally changes to a silver-grey color after a few years of being exposed to the sun. This discoloration does not affect the longevity of the wood.
Some people prefer to treat the wood with EcoWood Treatment, which will cause water to bead up and run off the wood, thereby active as a preservative. This is an effective treatment but it also makes the wood change to grey in color.
To retain the red-brown cedar color, you can apply a coat of Tung Oil Finish (not pure tung oil) and this will brighten the colors (as if the wood were wet) and help retain them for years. If you use this method, we recommend only treating the outside of the beds, and not treating any surface where the soil would come into contact.

On the Natural Cedar Raised Garden Planters page there are two photos that show a planter that looks lower with obviously lower height legs. But the only ones available for purchase are all 34" high. Do you not have the planter shown that is lower to the ground?? We have a relatively small size deck, and already have a 2×4 elevated garden planter, but I would like more space to plant some more things, such as peas or squash (with a trellis inserted). But we don't have room for two large high elevated gardens. We are looking for something that is low to the ground and 3 to 4 ft. long, 12-18" wide. I can't seem to find something like this anywhere (especially nice, and not plastic) ! :-( Do you here, or anyone, know where I can find a planter like this? Thank you!!

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for inquiring about the Natural Cedar Raised Garden Planters! Unfortunately we only offer two options for these planters at this time; the one shown on the left in this image and the one shown in the back / center.
